Tactile pushbutton switch

4 April 2012 Switches, Relays & Keypads

Knitter-switch has added a very small, tactile pushbutton switch to its TS/TSS 4500 series. Unlike other models in the range, the TS 4533-RA has a horizontal stem, making it ideal for a variety of applications that demand a very small and very robust, momentary action pushbutton.

With a total height off the board of just 5,2 mm, the through-hole mounting switch features a choice of operating actuation forces of 100, 160 or 260 gf and an operating lifetime of 50 000 cycles. Featuring a hard polyamide stem, the switch is particularly suitable as a reset switch to be operated by a pen, screwdriver or probe.

Typical applications for the TS 4533-RA include satellite navigation systems, PDAs, communications equipment such as modems and routers, entertainment and games consoles, television set-top boxes, medical products, home appliances and industrial control and instrumentation equipment.
